28 March 2017

Alex Kiwomya returns after missing Carlisle win due to illness.

Alex Kiwomya is back in contention for a place in the Crewe Alexandra squad this weekend after overcoming a bout of illness. The on-loan Chelsea forward missed the 2-0 win at Carlisle after being unable to train towards the end of last week due to a virus but he is over the worst and has successfully returned to training.

Striker Jordan Bowery was also feeling unwell but managed to play his part in the 2-0 win at Brunton Park. Bowery scored the club’s second goal before being replaced late on.

David Artell explained to the club’s official web-site: “Alex was unwell and that is why he wasn’t in the squad on Saturday. He is okay now and is back training.

“Jordan was also not 100%. He had been struggling with illness but managed to play most of the game. He was really under the weather but played his part. He got through it okay.
